Zack Mahdavi, a third year medical student from The University of Texas Medical Branch, has developed a simple medical calculator for clinical use by doctors and nurses. Prompted by his own love for the iPhone and motivated by a bit of nagging from his coworkers, Mahdavi now offers Mediquations for $5 through the App Store.
Here’s a current list of supported equations:
* A-a O2 Gradient * Absolute Neutrophil Count * Age * Anion Gap * APGAR score * Basal Energy Expenditure (Harris-Benedict) * Bayesian Sensitivity/Specificity * Body Mass Index (BMI) * Body Surface Area (BSA) * Cardiac Output (Fick) * Cockcroft Gault GFR * Corrected QT (QTc) * Corrected Serum Calcium * Corrected Serum Phenytoin * Corrected Serum Sodium * Fractional Excretion of Sodium * Framingham Cardiac Risk Score * Free Water Deficit for Hypernatremia * Glasgow Coma Scale * Henderson-Hasselbach Equation * Hepatitis Discriminant Function * Ideal Body Weight (IBW) * LDL Cholesterol Estimation (Friedewald Equation) * Maintenance Fluids * MDRD GFR * Mean Arterial Pressure * MELD Score * Osmolality (Serum) * Osmotic Gap (Stool) * Parkland Formula * Peak Flow (predicted) * PELD Score * Ranson Criteria * Reticulocyte Production Index * Schwartz Pedi GFR * Temperature Conversion * Transtubular K Gradient * Weight Unit Conversion * Well’s Criteria * Winters’ Formula
